Finally upgrading/updating from a 6m X2 Crosswing and a 4.4m V2 Slingwing and I’ve narrowed down my selection to the Duotone Slick (a 5.5m and a 4m). My question is, should I get 2023 D/LAB or 2024 Dacron/Project Blue? Both are available right now and the price is close enough I could go either way. So it’s a material differences vs. 2023/2024 design changes question. Thx.

New Unit boom is amazing, maybe get that or wait for the 2025 slick?
I tested the Slick 4 2023 Dlab. I have Slicks 4 and 5 from 2023, and finally, I have the Slick 5 2024.
I found the Dlab complicated because if I pumped the wing hard, it had no power, and if I pumped less, the wing collapsed at stronger gusts in the middle.
The 2024 Dacron version is really good, better than the 2023 models. It has good power and much less flapping in stronger winds. The blue version is the same as the Dacron version, but it is more environmentally friendly.
